27&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;4&quot;&gt;&lt;B&gt;Are you conducting research for a paper/project?&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
28&lt;/font&gt;
29&lt;blockquote&gt;
30&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Conducting research for a paper or project can be a rewarding
31 academic experiment.&amp;nbsp; It's a bit like detective work - your teacher or
32 professor tells you to write about a subject, and off you go....&amp;nbsp; You
33 have to wade through tons of information, and then - out of thousands of words
34 - decide what to include in your paper or project.&amp;nbsp; It can be
35 frustrating, and sometimes boring, but you're guaranteed to learn (and that
36 is, after all, the ultimate goal of education.) &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
37 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;B&gt;The first step&lt;/B&gt; is the most obvious - &lt;B&gt;choosing a topic&lt;/B&gt;.&amp;nbsp;
38 Choose something which interests you!&amp;nbsp; Research can be fun if you're
39 actually interested in the topic.&amp;nbsp; But if you're not, it can be boring
40 and frustrating. &lt;BR&gt;Now quite often you can't choose your topic.&amp;nbsp; But
41 even if you don't have a choice, the right attitude is important.&amp;nbsp; Don't
42 look at the research as a chore - look at it as an opportunity to learn new
43 things which may be useful to you one day.&amp;nbsp; Who knows?&amp;nbsp; The love of
44 your life might turn out to be a Tudor fanatic. &lt;/font&gt;
45 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Once you're topic has been chosen, you're ready for &lt;B&gt;step two&lt;/B&gt; -
46 &lt;B&gt;background reading&lt;/B&gt;! &lt;BR&gt;Read a general introduction to your topic,
47 either in your textbook or an encyclopedia.&amp;nbsp; This will only take a little
48 while, and it's invaluable. &lt;BR&gt;After all, if you're doing a paper on Henry
49 VIII, it helps to have read a brief biography of his life.&amp;nbsp; Then, while
50 you're doing more specialized research, you can place the research in its
51 proper context. &lt;BR&gt;If you want to do further reading on Tudor history, please
52 visit the &lt;A href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=1&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2fenglishhistory.net%2ftudor%2fbiblio.html&quot;&gt;Tudor
53 Bibliography&lt;/A&gt;.&amp;nbsp; It's a list of the works I used to create this site.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;P&gt;
54&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Background research leads to &lt;B&gt;step three&lt;/B&gt; - &lt;B&gt;narrow your topic to
55 acceptable limits&lt;/B&gt;. &lt;BR&gt;If you only have to write a 3-5 page paper, don't
56 choose something like the Reformation.&amp;nbsp; Instead, choose a particular
57 aspect of the Reformation.&amp;nbsp; A good idea is to do background reading, and
58 write down some 'key words'.&amp;nbsp; Perhaps one of the 'key words' will become
59 your final topic. &lt;BR&gt;Another idea is to use the 'key words' to make questions
60 or statements.&amp;nbsp; If you're writing about the Reformation in England, you
61 could write the following - The Reformation in England was different than the
62 Reformation in Germany.&amp;nbsp; Or, Was the Reformation in England different
63 than the Reformation in Germany? &lt;BR&gt;Answering such questions, or finding
64 support for the statements, can guide your research.&amp;nbsp; Create as many
65 questions and statements as you need. &lt;/font&gt;
66 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Once you have narrowed your topic, move on to &lt;B&gt;step four&lt;/B&gt; - &lt;B&gt;more
67 background research&lt;/B&gt;! &lt;BR&gt;Once again, head for the encyclopedias.&amp;nbsp;
68 They will give you a summary of the narrowed topic and familiarize you with
69 the major themes and vocabulary you will encounter later. &lt;BR&gt;Also, most
70 encyclopedias include a bibliography which lists the major scholarly works
71 related to your topic.&amp;nbsp; Once you have that list, head to the library and
72 use the internet. &lt;/font&gt;
73 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;B&gt;And keep it simple!&lt;/B&gt; &lt;BR&gt;Whenever you're writing a paper, always keep
74 its length in mind.&amp;nbsp; A short paper (3-5 pages) doesn't require the same
75 amount of research as a longer paper.&amp;nbsp; Don't make yourself work harder.
76 &lt;BR&gt;If you're interested in a topic beyond what you can include in the paper,
77 that's great - but immerse yourself in the topic during personal time.&amp;nbsp;
78 Don't let your paper become more than you can handle.&amp;nbsp; And too much
79 detail can drown your topic and lower your grade.&amp;nbsp; It's natural to want
80 to impress your teacher or professor with the breadth of your knowledge, but
81 too much detail can actually be harmful to the presentation of a clear,
82 concise argument. &lt;/font&gt;
83 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;If you start feeling lost or confused, talk to your teacher.&amp;nbsp; After
84 all, they know exactly what they want in a paper. &lt;/font&gt;
85 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;And now some information about using my sites for research, or the internet
86 in general.... &lt;/font&gt;
87 &lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;CENTER&gt;
88 &lt;P&gt;&lt;U&gt;&lt;FONT size=+1 face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Help for students conducting research on the 'World Wide
89 Web'&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/U&gt;&lt;/CENTER&gt;
90 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Conducting research on the internet can be a tricky and confusing
91 experience.&amp;nbsp; Luckily for us all, the Department of English at Saint Louis
92 University has created &lt;A
93 href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2fwww.slu.edu%2fdepartments%2fenglish%2fresearch&quot;&gt;a website to help
94 everyone&lt;/A&gt; - please take the time to explore this valuable resource.&amp;nbsp;
95 Also, I have collected information about 'Citing Electronic Sources'.&amp;nbsp;
96 With these tools, you should be able to research and write about any topic -
97 and use the internet as authoritatively as you use the library! &lt;/font&gt;
98 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;If you prefer to cut and paste links, the link to the Saint Louis
99 University site is: &lt;BR&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;
100 &lt;a href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2fwww.slu.edu%2fdepartments%2fenglish%2fresearch&quot;&gt;http://www.slu.edu/departments/english/research/&lt;/a&gt;
101 &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;
102 &lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;P align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;4&quot;&gt;Copyright
103information for this website&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;I'm very happy that
104so many people from all over the world use this site for research.&amp;nbsp; It's
105the reason I created the site and continue to work on it.&amp;nbsp; Many of you have
106written and asked how to cite my work in your papers and reports.&amp;nbsp; This is
107the correct format based upon both the Turabian/Chicago and MLA styles:&lt;br&gt;
108&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
109Hanson, Marilee. &amp;quot;Contemporary Descriptions of Anne Boleyn.&amp;quot; &lt;i&gt;
110EnglishHistory.net&lt;/i&gt;. 2001. http://englishhistory.net/tudor/annedesc.html (7
111May 2001).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;You must change the article title to
112reflect what you are quoting and&amp;nbsp; use the date you read the source here.
113&lt;/font&gt;
114&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Please visit the following sites to learn more - &lt;A
115 href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2flcweb2.loc.gov%2fammem%2fndlpedu%2fcite.html&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;The LOC's
116Citing Electronic Sources&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/A&gt; page and the &lt;font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;
117&lt;a href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2fwww.columbia.edu%2fcu%2fcup%2fcgos%2fidx%5fbasic.html&quot;&gt;
118&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;Columbia University Press&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt; website.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
119&lt;font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Let me clearly state that citing electronic sources is a valid form of
120 research and accepted at most academic institutions.&amp;nbsp; And I would also
121 like to reassure every visitor to the site that I have checked and
122 double-checked every bit of information included on these pages. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
123 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;Also, if you are citing 'Primary Sources', you do not need to know the
124 original source of the 'primary source'.&amp;nbsp; Again, it is perfectly
125 acceptable to cite an internet page as a source and every teacher should be
126 aware of this - if they're not, tell them. &lt;BR&gt;As I've discovered over
127 the years, simply because a book has its information printed on paper and
128 bound in a nice cover doesn't mean it's accurate.&amp;nbsp; In fact, quite a few
129 recently-published&amp;nbsp; history texts are woefully inaccurate and
130 misleading.&amp;nbsp; So it is best to check and double-check your research,
131 whether it comes from the internet or a library.&amp;nbsp; I recently wrote a
132 rant about this - &lt;font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;
133 &lt;a href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2fenglishhistory.net%2ftudor%2fhistory.html&quot;&gt;
134 &lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;click here to read&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;P&gt;
135&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;If you have general questions about copyright law, &lt;A
136 href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2flcweb.gov%2fcopyright&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;go to this site&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/A&gt;.&amp;nbsp; This is the
137 homepage of the US Copyright Office; it contains information about
138 international copyright law, too.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
139 &lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;And now -
140 &lt;B&gt;Copyright information&lt;/B&gt;....&amp;nbsp; boring but vital!&amp;nbsp; Here it is, in
141 brief - &lt;B&gt;everything at this site was written by me
142 (Marilee.)&lt;/B&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Therefore, I hold
143 the copyright for all my original work. &lt;/font&gt;
144 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;And I take all the blame if it bores you to tears or
145 confuses you endlessly.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/font&gt;
146 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;The site was created in 1997 and is updated regularly.&amp;nbsp;
147 Visit the &lt;FONT color=#FFFFFF&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;_httpextlink_&amp;amp;rl=0&amp;amp;href=http:%2f%2fenglishhistory.net%2ftudor%2fnew.html&quot;&gt;

150 last name to credit the site, please use Marilee Hanson.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;P&gt;
151&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;I do not hold the sole copyright to anything at the &lt;/font&gt;

154 section.&amp;nbsp; Those are original historical documents in the public domain
155 which I collected and transcribed.&amp;nbsp; Yes, it was loads of work to type
156 everything up, but they were simply transcribed (not written) by me.&amp;nbsp;
157 That is why they're called 'Primary Sources'. &lt;BR&gt;I do hold the copyright on
158 the electronic version of the texts, which I typed.&amp;nbsp; This is where the
159 internet becomes confusing - essentially, the words are not mine but by virtue
160 of transcribing them into electronic format, I own this particular version.&amp;nbsp;
161 So I would ask that no one copies my hard work, at least without asking
162 permission and/or giving me credit. &lt;/FONT&gt;
163 &lt;P&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;As for graphics used here, copyright law allows the use of images for
164 educational purposes, provided no profit is made and the image is not
165 altered.&amp;nbsp; And since I did go to the considerable trouble of scanning the
166 images, I like to be asked before someone 'borrows' them.&amp;nbsp; This simple
167 act of courtesy goes a long way in the happy-go-lucky world of the internet.
168 &lt;/font&gt;
